Looks like I can't use any of the normal boot media, ethernet isn't onboard, OF doesn't have a driver. CD, no go in OF. HD, best I can do is a FAT partition on IDE, but I have yet to get a loader to fire up cleanly off it (Open, Net, or Free). NetBSD's boot floppies do work, but I see no analog yet in the PPC port. Is there a method of making boot floppies yet for the FreeBSD PPC port? Joshua Coombs
